This my first attempt at putting a blog together. I have been meaning to do this for a few years and now I am finally jumping in.

This blog serves as a gathering place for my personal thoughts, discoveries, and aspirations. Thus the name of the blog, AMALGAMOI. This name is composed of "amalgam" and "moi". I'll leave it to you to deduce the meaning of it.

In this blog I will talk about things that are influencing my life, such as books, art, design, fashion, cars, philosophy, and all other things that I cannot think of at this time.

I hope you enjoy sharing these things with me, and by all means feel free to post comments, opinions, critiques, and whatever else you deem necessary (as long as it is all kept polite and PG-rated).
